Harbour Farm offers Self Catering holiday accommodation in the attractive and popular holiday resort of Bembridge, which is well known for its good, safe beaches, excellent sailing, water sports and fine weather. Sea Fishing and riding are available locally. Dinghy storage can be provided for guests who wish to bring their own. Day sailing can also be arranged. Prior notice is required - please let us know if you require any of the facilities when enquiring/booking. Harbour Farm is within an RSPB Nature Reserve and is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Special Protected Area (SPA). It is well known for the wide range and diversity of birds, flowers and plants. There is a 15 acre freshwater lake surrounded by reeds in which private fishing may be arranged. The lake is in front of the Cottage and Lodge, and is home to a large variety of ducks such as mallard, teal, shelduck, pochard and tufted, as well as herons, Little Egrets, swans and occasionally bitterns in the winter. Kingfishers and Red Squirrels can sometimes be glimpsed from the Cottage garden. The farm is only 250 yards from the harbour and is a bird watchers' paradise. There is good local shopping in Bembridge and safe, sandy beaches a few minutes walk away. Harbour Farm is situated midway between St. Helens and Bembridge. Once you have reached Ryde, follow the Sandown Road (A3055) and turn off half a mile before Brading at traffic lights signposted to St. Helens and Bembridge (B3330). After arriving at St. Helens green turn right down the hill on to - Embankment Road - towards Bembridge. Half way along Embankment Road there is a sign on the right hand side indicating a sharp bend. Turn immediately right after this sign down the lane marked 'private road' to the farm. The farmhouse is on the right.
